Wear and electrical performance of a slip-ring system with silver–graphite in continuous sliding against PVD coated wires

TL;DR: Sliding electrical contacts transferring current between stationary and rotating components are also tribological systems as mentioned in this paper, although low contact resistance and noise are prioritised, lower wear rate is lower than that of traditional systems.

Effects of environment on dry sliding wear of powder metallurgical Ti-47Al-2Cr-2Nb-0.2W

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of environment on the dry sliding wear behavior of Ti-47Al-2Cr-2Nb-0.2W powders have been investigated, and the results indicate that both two-body and three-body abrasive wear, as well as plastic deformation and delamination were the main wear mechanisms.

Effect of bio-fuel (E85) addition on lubricated sliding wear mechanisms of a eutectic Al–Si alloy

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of addition of bio-fuel blend consisting of 85% ethanol and 15% gasoline by volume, E85, on lubricated sliding wear of a eutectic Al-12.6% Si alloy was investigated.

Three-body abrasive wear behavior of E-glass fabric reinforced/graphite-filled epoxy composites

TL;DR: In this paper, an experimental study on three-body abrasive wear behavior of glass fabric reinforced/graphite particulate-filled epoxy composites is presented. But, it was observed that the glass fabric reinforcement to epoxy matrix (G-E) is not beneficial to wear resistance and the inclusion of graphite filler to graphite reinforced epoxy composite performed poorly resulting in significant deterioration in wear performance.

Micro-abrasion resistance of thermochemically treated steels in aqueous solutions: Mechanisms, maps, materials selection

TL;DR: In this article, the performance of two thermochemically treated steels, Tenifer bath nitride stainless steel (T-SS) and vanadized carbon steel (V-CS), in terms of micro-abrasion performance was evaluated with reference to the stainless steel by varying the applied load and sliding distance.
